My name is Lizzie, and I can officially say I met my idol Justin…

See the article here:

My name is Lizzie, and I can officially say I met my idol Justin Bieber on July 18 th 2013 at the XL Center in Hartford, CT. I got the tickets in December 2012 and I’ve been waiting for the day for such a long time. During the VIP party, Fredo, Ryan Butler, Kenny, Za, his drums player, Tay James, and a bunch of dancers walked through the room. Kenny came to talk to us to thank us for being here, and I also got a picture with with some crew members. After about an hour and a half, it was time to meet Justin. He was pretty late, but he was with Make-A-Wish kids so I was glad he was spending so much time with them. I walked slowly into the room through the curtain and tried to take in all his features at once. The first thing I saw was his gold chain he was wearing and then I saw all the tattoos, but other than that, I can’t remember much. I was so starstruck, I barley noticed Fredo in the room with us! I said something like, “Hey, oh my god, I love you so much.” Justin said “Hey” back in this really low raspy voice and then he said “I love you too,” really softly. It was so unreal. Right after the picture was taken, security pushed me from behind and as I was moving my hand down from his side. He rubbed my side a little before I left too. I walked out of there like I was floating, but right outside the curtain was Justin’s friend Lil Za. I was so starstruck, even with him! I started just talking about how awesome he is and at one point I said he was my favorite and I told him I loved him so much. I asked for a high five and he gave me one! My mom (who was behind me in line) told me that as soon as I walked away from Za, he was beaming with happiness. As we went to our seats, I saw Dan on the way there! Dan walked through the arena earlier and everyone bombarded him, but this time it was just him and I. I said hey and asked for a hug and he gave me one. I was in Section 1, Row C, Seats 13 and 14, two seats away from the catwalk! During the show, my friend Natalie (@hessourkidrauhl) who I met there and I went up against the barricade for the catwalk. After the show was over, Dan came down the catwalk and since I was now in like row 1, he handed me the only setlist for the show, signed by him! Everyone behind me got some of his guitar picks. We thanked him and left, but later that night, I thanked him again on Twitter and attached the picture of the setlist, and he followed me! During the show, it seemed like all my problems went away and I was the happiest I have ever been. I was having the time of my life. I touched almost all the dancers’ hands, and I made eye contact with Justin at least twice. During ‘Believe’ everyone in the arena held up signs saying: “Always Our Kidrauhl” and once Justin walked away from the piano, he looked down and read the sign Natalie and I were sharing, and smiled! It was really cute. As ‘Baby’ was finishing and Justin was going down into the stage, he looked right into my eyes and smiled a true, genuine smile, I’m pretty sure he winked too (but that could just be my imagination). The concert was the best night of my life and I can’t thank Justin and everyone on the crew enough for it! -@ontarioloving Original post: My name is Lizzie, and I can officially say I met my idol Justin…

My name is Dale and I met Justin on July 17th, 2013 in Philadelphia . I’ve been supporting Justin since December 2009 and made a Twitter (@JBieberBoy94) supporting him on February 1st, 2010. I used to watch Justin in 2008 on YouTube and when I heard about him being famous in 2009, I froze up. I couldn’t believe it. After making my Twitter I organized buyouts for him, posted signs around, and supported him in anyway I could. I tried meeting him in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013. They all failed, except one. In 2010, 2011, and 2012 my friends started trending topics: #JustinMeetDale; and #BiebsMeetDale. My friend Sydney (@y0bieber) never gave up helping me. She’s been the most amazing friend and gave me hope that I will meet him one day. Every time the crew would respond afterwards when it couldn’t happen. I’d think of “Never Say Never” and it gave me hope. Finally, in 2013 I entered the BieberFever contest. I had no tickets, and no M&Gs. The day before the concert I started losing hope but my friend Sydney told me not to worry, and that it’s not over until tomorrow. At 7:04 p.m. I got an e-mail from BieberFever telling me that I was meeting Justin and I cried my eyes out. I was FINALLY meeting him. The next day, I got to the arena and found out Justin was giving fans water, what an amazing idol right? Anyways after waiting in the line for 3 hours I was finally experiencing the meet & greet. I walked in, Justin had the biggest smile on his face. I was speechless but I said, “I’ve been a fan since the beginning,” very lightly and he heard me and said, “Wow thank you so much,” and smirked. After the photo was taken, I could not find which exit to leave so before I left, he gave me a handshake and said, “Thanks.” I was too happy to even say anything. The concert is an experience you’ll never forget. During the show he touched my hand and recorded me with the camera. As the concert went on, I kept getting more emotional thinking, “It finally happened” and when he starting singing ‘Believe’ is when I started tearing up. Please don’t ever give up on your dreams. Work hard and stay determined no matter how long it takes. It took me 4 years to achieve my dream, you can do it too. Just BELIEVE.  After seeing my picture, I hope it gives you hope. Thank you so much for reading my experience, thank you to my friends who helped me through this all, and thank you so much Justin for being the greatest idol ever. I love you all.  -@JBieberBoy94 See the rest here: My name is Dale and I met Justin on July 17th, 2013 in…

Fantasy Football Draft 2013: Don’t Select Aaron Hernandez!

With everyone’s fantasy football draft just days away, THG is here to offer advice on practically every position on the field. Which quarterback should you take after Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees? What about the best running back after Adrian Peterson? The top receiver after Calvin Johnson ? Now, it’s time for the tight ends. We’d stay away from Aaron Hernandez and then we’d pick the following players in the order listed below: Jimmy Graham : The clear top choice. He’s Brees’ number-one option and he’s in a contract year. Rob Gronkowski : He’s either number-two… or he’s not on the list. Recent back surgeries make it impossible to know his status, but will challenge Graham is healthy. Jason Witten : It doesn’t get much less sexy… or much more consistent. Tony Gonzalez : Ditto, really. No way would he return for another season if he didn’t feel like he could compete at a high level. Antonio Gates : Has fallen considerably from his status a couple years ago, but still among the elite. Pretty big drop-off after him. Vernon Davis : Had a couple big playoff games, but didn’t really connect with Colin Kaepernick prior to them. The loss of Michael Crabtree could also mean more double teams. Kyle Rudolph : Someone has to catch the ball in Minnesota. Right? Brandon Pettigrew : Will be overshadowed by Calvin Johnson, of course, but where do you think Matthew Stafford will turn whenever Megatron draws too many defenders? Greg Olsen : A quality safety valve for Cam Newton. Owen Daniels: Finished at number-8 tight end in regular ESPN fantasy scoring last year despite nagging injuries.

Raz-B on Life Support After Gruesome Bottle Attack

Raz-B is on life support in a hospital in China after the 28-year-old R&B singer suffered an absolutely brutal bottle attack to the face this week. Raz-B’s publicist, Toy Jones, tells celebrity news site TMZ: “He is in a coma and needs as many prayers as possible.” Raz was performing at a club China on Thursday and was hit in the face with a glass bottle – while trying to break up a fight that erupted in the crowd. He received medical attention hours after the incident and underwent surgery to repair a gash in his lip (below), but the next day, he did not wake up. Raz’s backup dancer rushed him to a nearby hospital. Doctors tested for brain activity and found the situation was dire; Raz is breathing from a ventilator at this time and has been slipping in and out of consciousness. The singer (real name De’Mario Monte Thornton) and You Got Served actor is probably most famous for being a founding member of R&B boy band B2K. Here’s hoping he can make a miraculous recovery.

Wow, I never thought I would be writing a my Bieber experience….

Wow, I never thought I would be writing a my Bieber experience. On the morning of the concert, July 6, 2013 in Omaha, NE , I was staying at a hotel about 3 blocks from the arena Justin was performing at that night. I got up at 6 a.m. with my two best friends Kenzie and Harlee. All three of us got ready together and walked to the arena at around 8:30 in the morning. We walked around the arena for a bit and saw Jon Boogie, he waved to us! Around 10:30 we met these girls outside and they told us that Justin was supposed to walk across this glass thing that connected the arena and his hotel between 11 or 12. I then checked my email around 11:30 and there popped up an email from BieberFever saying I had won meet and greet for that night! I covered my mouth and started crying. I showed my phone to Harlee (the girl I took to the m&g with me) and she started crying too. That email was the best thing that ever happened to me. I called everyone and told them about it! We went back to the arena to pick up our wristbands and waited in line. They made us get into groups of six, which sucked. Kenny came out to talk to us about the rules and stuff and everyone of course freaked because it was Kenny Hamilton. I yelled his name and asked for a picture, so he came over and took one with me. He was so nice, and he took pictures with pretty much everyone in the line who asked. My friend and I were yelling “Meechy” and he looked over at us and laughed. He came back and I asked for a hug. He hugged me and oh my gosh he smells so good. Then I saw the curtained area and I almost cried. We were standing there talking and all of a sudden Za ripped the curtain open and yelled “Wazzuupp!” and shut it really fast. I screamed and everyone started freaking out. My best friend goes, “Really Za, you would do that?” and he just laughed. We were both talking to him through the curtain and said, “I love you Za” and he said, “I love you too.” I then said, “Fredo I love you” without knowing if he was in the room or not and then Za answered back and said, “He loves you more.” Fredo then popped his head out from behind the curtain and stuck his tongue out and we screamed again. It was the best experience ever, Fredo and Za are so funny! When we got closer to the front we saw Kenny again and gave him the letters we wrote for Justin. The girls in front of us started freaking out when they saw Justin and they were all trying to hug him at the same time, so the security were pulling them away. It was then our turn and I asked for a hug and he said “Yes, of course” and hugged me. As soon as he talked, it took all my nerves away. I can’t even explain it, his voice is so calming. We went to take the picture and he put his arm around my waist. He was rubbing my waist with his hand the whole time he had it there, I was screaming on the inside. After the picture I told him I loved him and he said, “Thank you, love you too.” I went up to Fredo and asked for a hug and he said, “Of course, nice meeting you.” I was going to ask Za for a hug but he was sitting on the floor and he probably wouldn’t have got up. We were in the curtained area after our picture and Justin had two groups left. I’m so happy the security didn’t pulling us out of the room. We got to take our time and tell everyone hi and I’m so thankful. When we walked out I lost it, I started bawling. I still can’t believe any of that happened to me, none of it seems real. My dreams came true that day and I couldn’t be more thankful! Thank you for reading and never give up on your dreams. I never thought I would meet Justin and now look. I promise, if you haven’t met Justin yet, you will. Never give up! -@ScreamKidrauhl Link: Wow, I never thought I would be writing a my Bieber experience….

I met Justin for the second time on July 3rd, 2013. It was the best day of my life, obviously. The first time I met Justin was almost 3 years ago on July 5th, 2010. The first time I met Justin was just luck to be honest and so was the second time. The first time I met him was thanks to BieberFever. I also met Kenny, Dan, Scooter, and Ryan Good. The second time I met Justin was thanks to my mom who bought me meet & greets. At first I didn’t have meet & greets. During pre-sale they sold out immediately and I thought I’d never meet Justin again. But I was wrong. On the day of public sale, I found meet & greets and got them. Fro the first time I met Justin to the second time, so much had changed. Before he was shorter than me, and now we were about the same height, him being a little taller. He was so sweet and he held me tightly, I held him tightly too. I got to tell him I loved him before security kicked me out. When they took the picture I honestly didn’t know how it would turn out because I remember I was talking to Justin so much, I didn’t even remember if I smiled. Luckily I did and Justin smiled with me too! We all know Justin doesn’t smile often in meet & greets, so I’m really grateful I made him smile. Also, my mom had a great day because Justin held onto her tightly and said, “Thanks for coming ma’am,” so if you heard about that, yep that was my mom. I also met Dan and Kenny four times in just that day. This Bieber Experience was the BEST. -Neha (@CakeLikeBieber)  Read more: I met Justin for the second time on July 3rd, 2013. It was the…
